Post by micik on PLCOpenXML Export/Import with Visualisation ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I have noticed that Codesys doesn't provide option to Export any Visualization objects even though there is option to check to export VISU_TASK, which is strange because when Import in another empty project, user will end up with build errors. I understand that probable reason for this is that PLCOpenXML specification includes only "PLC" parts of the project (POU, PRG, variable lists, device ....), but not sure about it. Perhaps, there is some option to include visu objects also in the plcopen xml export list??

Post by sercan on Connecting Parameter 'A' in G-Code to Physical Axis in CNC Project ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I want to run the following command by linking it to the A-Axis: G01 A45.0 Which TRAFO should I use to do this? SMC_TRAFO_5Axes and SMC_TRAFO_GantryCutter3 function blocks did not work! For example, when SMC_TRAFO_5Axes is used, parameters B and C can be resolved by the transformer. However, parameter A cannot be resolved. Only SMC_Interpolator displays the value of parameter A in the SMC_Interpolator => piSetPosition.dA output. Should I drive this axis with SoftMotion commands (MC_MoveAbsolute etc.)?

Post by pistola on Making a Visu Element normally invisible and visible if variable is true ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
You can use Not(Variable) in that Invisible spot. Example if you want it to be invisible when the bool is false then: Not(True) = False Not(False) = True

Post by ppix on Establishing TLS Connection with MQTT Broker using MQTT Client SL Package ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
For anyone confused with the process visit this link (the bottom section about creating a .pfx file) https://content.helpme-codesys.com/en/LibDevSummary/certificate.html#import-of-client-certificates-with-private-key. I solved this problem by creating a .pfx file and importing it into the security store under 'Own Certificates'(must have SP18 or newer to import .pfx). I used a gitbash shell to enter the openssl command that created the .pfx file. Once you import the file, in your TLS context, set your 'sUseCaseName' to be the same as the name listed in the 'Information' column of your imported certificate. This did it for me

Post by kporter on High-resolution drive with SoftMotion ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
I'm beta-testing a new EtherCAT drive for a rotary (modulo) axis in a system where the encoder resolution is 81920000 counts per rotation. If I enter this in the SoftMotion Scaling/Mapping tab for "increments <=> motor turns", I get the error below on the Commissioning tab. Is SM unable to handle a high-resolution encoder? The bus cycle is currently set to the default of 4 msec (Control Win V3 x64), although I plan to reduce that to reduce latency, possibly by switching to the realtime (RT) master. Is SoftMotion incompatible with high-resolution encoders? SMC_CGR_INVALID_POSPERIOD Invalid modulo period (<= 0 or greater than half the bus bandwidth)

Post by francescoc on Logger in ms ^{CODESYS Forge talk (Post)}
Hi, I cannot find any documentation regarding the codesys configuration file. I modified this part to have log files saved to disk: [CmpLog] Logger.0.Name=LOGS/PlcLog Logger.0.Filter=0xFFFFFFFF Logger.0.Enable=1 Logger.0.MaxEntries=20000 Logger.0.MaxFileSize=5000 Logger.0.MaxFiles=10 Logger.0.Backend.0.ClassId=0x0000010B ;sends logger messages to SysOut Logger.0.Backend.1.ClassId=0x00000104 ;writes logger messages in a file Logger.0.Backend.2.ClassId=0x00000135 ;sends logger messages as UDP syslog Logger.0.Type=0x314;Set the timestamp to RTC ;Logger.1.Name=/tmp/CommLog ;Logger.1.Enable=1 I need to have milliseconds in the timestamp as well. What value should I use instead of 0x314? Is there any documentation regarding this file? Thank you
